Donald Trump was challenged Monday with taking a U.S. citizenship test by Khizr Khan, a Muslim- American man who made waves with his speech at the Democratic National Convention last month.

Khan is the father of a Muslim-American war hero who was killed in battle, fighting for the U.S.

This comes on the heels of Trump’s foreign policy address in Ohio. The GOP presidential nominee is calling for a new test for visa applicants as part of a vetting process.

It is uncertain if Trump will accept the challenge. A long-standing argument with the naturalization test is whether U.S. citizens born in the country could pass it.

Patt Morrison speaks to a civic engagement specialist today, to weigh in on the test’s standards and find out the likelihood of the average American passing the U.S. Naturalization test.
